You Talk Too Much!

“The material of this jade is of poor quality. Not a single line was made when I scratched it just now. It’s made of plastic!” Leon explained. “The choice of material reduces the production cost and makes it easier to imitate white jade stones.”

The manager froze in shock after Leon’s explanation. Fake! The famous Pavilion sold fakes of low quality.

Leon’s statement would severely affect the shop’s reputation. The Pavilion will now be remembered as a seller of fake stones. The shop might even run out of business soon!

The Pavilion manager didn’t expect the young man to deeply understand jade stones, even he couldn’t tell the fake stones from the real ones. Although he is shocked, he wouldn’t harm his own reputation in front of his customers.

“That’s impossible! These stones are from transactions with the Dani family. If you doubt my goods, then you are doubting the Danis too!” The manager dragged the Dani family name on purpose.

But Leon isn’t an easy opponent.

“If my evidence wasn’t enough, you can try it for yourself! Take a magnifying glass and check the outer surface of the stone for tiny bubbles. A real jade wouldn’t have bubbles at all!”

The customers each took a magnifying glass and examined the jades in detail. They are surprised that what Leon said is true, the jades sold at the Pavilion are fakes.

The manager is at a loss for words.

“No… no way, that was an accusation!” he shouted in panic. “There must be something wrong with the magnifying glass! The Pavilion and Dani family can guarantee the authenticity of the stones!”

“Don’t trust what he said, he’s trying to fool all of us!”

Although the Pavilion’s manager tried his best to convince the customers, none of them trusts him anymore.

Not only sending his shop to bankruptcy, but the Dani family’s antiquities business is also dragged into the pit.

The old man who was watching the debate walked towards Leon.

“Young man, may I know your name?” he asked Leon with a cold expression.

The manager was taken aback when he saw the old man.

“Mr…. Mr Dani, what are you doing here?”

Mr Dani?

The old man is around seventy years old. Although his hair is thinning, his stare is still as sharp as an eagle’s.

Leon thought for a second, and everything became clear. But since there are many other people in the room, he isn’t comfortable to discuss the matter.

Mr Dani didn’t answer the Pavilion’s manager and kept on walking to face Leon with his serious expression.

Mr Dani has been anxious in the past week; he is about to welcome a guest. He decided going out walking might help calm his nerves, but he got into this incident instead.

Almost all the jade stones and ornaments sold in the Pavilion are derived from the Dani family’s antique rack.

Since this incident could affect his family’s reputation, Mr Dani can’t ignore it.

Local guests shied away from the moment Mr Dani made his appearance.

He is gossiped to be a powerful businessman in Oregon who has a large ego.

Right now, everyone shares a common thought. And at that moment Leon will be made powerless!

To destroy the great company reputation Mr Dani built in front of everyone, Leon will not be forgiven! Judging from Mr Dani’s cold and serious expression, Leon is going to get killed!

But the spectators were astonished by Leon’s composure.

“My name is not important. You’ll know it when the time comes,” Leon said in a plain tone.

Everyone deemed Leon’s attitude a big mistake.

If he started begging, then maybe Mr Dani will show his mercy, but Leon didn’t beg and stayed firm.

When everyone held their breaths in anticipation of Mr Dani beating Leon, what he did instead disappointed them.

“If you’re not telling me, forget it! I only have one question. How did you identify the fake stones in a flash?”

Mr Dani didn’t seem angry at Leon, but his stare was as sharp as an eagle’s. He felt Leon had a certain intelligence.

Leon glanced at Mr Dani.

After destroying his family’s profit, Mr Dani held onto his anger to maintain his reputation in public. There is no point in being angry when the problem has gotten this far.

Mr Dani deserves his throne as the family’s ruler. Not even Tommy could beat his tolerance.

“Listen to sound that is made when carving a jadestone. A fake will sound rough, but a real nephrite stone will sound loud and clear,” Leon explained.

The crowd in the store immediately discussed his statement.

“What a fraud! Differentiating the stones by its sound is a difficult and unreliable method! The difference between the two are very small.”

“If he used sound to tell the difference, I refuse to believe his listening ability!”

“Not only his ears are skillful, he needs to have quick reflexes. When the stone is carved, it is hard to focus and react.”

“Seeing his swindling attempt is making me angry! He needs a beating!”

People can be very annoying. If Leon wants to, he could listen to someone peeing, so what about a piece of stone?

In addition, his house was filled with various jade ornaments. He is used to being surrounded by nephrite stones.

Mr Dani stared at Leon with doubt.

He believed what Leon said from the way his eyes exude a calm and firm aura, unlike a person who is lying.

But he is doubtful. While Leon is still young, he seems to have studied a lot about jade stones. His ability doesn’t match his age.

“Where is he from?” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Mr Dani sighed quietly and stared at Leon again.

He said, “The Dani family is also responsible for the fake stones that appeared in the Pavilion. I am willing to pay for the loss.”

Mr Dani acted wisely and abandoned his profit for the sake of others to return his family’s image.

His actions were different from the rumours spread about him.

His powerful aura is unquestionably stable and wise, although a little less graceful.

Mr Dani loves his grandchildren so much. He didn’t know the young man in front of him had just beaten his grandson up.

“You will need to pay for a little more. At a glance, the wooden rack over there has a lot of fake jade stones. Some of them are Korean jade, Qinghai jade and acrylic glass with a total of twenty-three stones,” Leon said honestly.

The fake stones wouldn’t escape his gaze.

Mr Dani lifted his eyebrows, his face turned pale as snow. He was surprised as his family’s antiquities trade has always gone smoothly. After strict quality control, a fake item unexpectedly appears, and there is more than one!

“Young man, don’t speak nonsense. Are you sure there are still other fake goods in this shop?” Dani asked seriously.

“Yes, very precious,” Leon lifted his head. “See it for yourself.”

Leon pointed at a jade stone on the left.

Amongst the stones, almost all of them are fakes. Ignore the sandalwood rack, all the stones on it are fake. An unwise man will be easily fooled.

Mr Dani directed his sharp gaze at Leon a couple times.

“If that is true, I will handle it fairly. But if it is not, I will not let anyone tarnish the Dani family’s name, and this rumor will end sadly!”

The declaration didn’t scare Leon but made Rachel anxious instead. She furrowed her eyebrows, and her face appeared tense.

Leon circled his arm around her waist and puller her closer to lean on his shoulder.

“Don’t say much, take a look at the stones!” Leon said firmly. His intimidating aura rose immediately, but Leon tried to suppress it.

His breath could instantly harm everyone in the vicinity, but he didn’t want to attract too much attention.

Mr Dani suddenly felt nervous. He didn’t know why his body started shaking. Is the osteoarthritis on his knee back again?

Judging from Mr Dani’s appearance, the spectators thought Leon would have terrible luck.

“Look at how angry Mr Dani is! His whole body is shaking!”

“Mr Dani is furious. How is the young man so shameless?”

“The young man is finished! Once Mr Dani is angry, the whole Oregon will be shaking!”

“You might not know, but Mr Dani has a powerful breath called ‘Kelud Tiger’!”

The praises made Mr Dani believe Leon is bluffing…

He started examining the jade stones. Mr Dani identifies the stones while Leon watches from his side. He is still doubtful of Leon’s words.

If there are fakes, he will only find two or three items at most. But there is no way there will be twenty- three of them.

Everyone held their breaths in anticipation at the rage Leon would receive from Mr Dani.

The Dani family has a solid foundation and perfect industry chain in the antiquities trade. How could there be so many fake items?

He must be bluffing, eventually causing Mr Dani’s anger.

The spectators wait for the appearance of Mr Dani’s anger as rumoured.

If any of the items are fake and what the young man said is true, the family’s show will be ruined, and it will not end well.

Twenty minutes have passed, and Mr Dani has finished checking all the stones.

“Damn stones!”

Mr Dani’s expression became tense with annoyance.
